The Anthro artist army marches on!
Way to go, Dave!
Dreams sometimes do come true.
My brother found this on Bobby London's Instagram page. If you don't know Bobby London, he is one of the great anthro cartoonists and made my teen years a little more bearable.
Mr. London was one of the Air Pirates.
Bobby also took over Thimble Theater in 1986, but there were differences 'twixt him and the owners-
Worried over even the implication of the a-word, the syndicate fired London and refused to run the continuity. They've been running repeats of Sagendorf strips ever since.
Bobby and my brother argue frequently.
Another victim of the Cancer Culture, Dav Pilkey is frequently banned:

He must really threaten the nonentities that dominate the teaching 'profession' these days. I wonder if Huckleberry Finn is still allowed in classrooms? Public schools are a disgrace and are merely holding cells for future convicts and societal drones.
DeleteI went to public school
DeleteMany of the books Mark Twain wrote for youthful readers are now excluded. Apparently they're racist.
DeleteWhen the Judge tries to reform Huck's father, I think that is one of the funniest things ever written. All these pc types need to lighten up, pronto.
DeleteMy behavior caused my teachers to freak out lol!
ReplyDeleteReally now! I would have thought you a model student. My own behavior makes my rabbit Billy look like Father Lankester Merrin. And as for the older young me, once I found out that if I obeyed orders exactly as they were given to me I could get away with murder in the Corps.
DeleteUh...we were talking about you as I recall. How did you freak your teachers out, were you a furry artist then? I would think that back in the day considering what we saw on Saturday morning tv that would have been fine and dandy!
Fun article, Sphinx is triggered by mention of Air Pirates btw.
ReplyDeleteSphinx? I'm not familiar with that one. I tracked thsi one down:

It's an inside joke. Sphinx is one of my characters
DeleteThose guys tried to draw the world's attention to Disney getting special copyright status. But damn if I would take on The Mouse, they lost in court and were ordered to pay 100,000 dollars, which Disney never tried to collect. https://boom-art.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/disney-BW-cadre-d%E2%80%9Atail-02.jpg This is by Wally Wood, and Disney wisely ignored it. The Air Pirates were a threat, the orgy poster was best left alone.
